Hi @adventureridingnz …

The depth parameter actually adds the sub-pages as a list, rather than a fully formatted child-page with images, etc.. The reason for this is that it would be very difficult to accommodate lots of sub-pages (and their own sub-pages) while still showing the hierarchy of the pages.

Imagine the following scenario:

• The cols parameter is set to 3
• The depth parameter is also set to 3
• Each page or child page to be displayed has at least 3 child pages

The first set of pages would be displayed in 3 columns, but adding the next set of child pages to each box effectively produces 9 columns of sub-pages … going down another level gives 27 columns, and so on.

This can get pretty unwieldy, and so the compromise was to show the sub-pages of the child-pages as a list.

This was not a feature that I actually wanted to add, but it was requested by someone as a particular requirement … if I get time i the future, I will look at a better way to do this.

However, I am a bit surprised by your last reply and will test this out for myself.

Your code:

[child_pages id=”33714″ thumbs=”true” link_thumbs=”true” link_titles=”true” post_status=”publish” hide_excerpt=”true” hide_more=”true” depth=”2″ skin=”blue”]

My code:

[child_pages id="33714" thumbs="true" link_thumbs="true" link_titles="true" post_status="publish" hide_excerpt="true" hide_more="true" depth="2" skin="blue"]
